The Interstellar Republic of Isaris is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Thilize Ryshoalvy with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 21.49 billion Isari are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large government is primarily concerned with Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arnon. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Isari economy, worth a remarkable 5,294 trillion equiliants a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 246,381 equiliants, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, annulments are on the rise as couples discover their ancestors were born in the same hospitals, the Grinder at Fat Sal's Deli and Recycling Center is a national institution, and money can't buy love but mercy is entirely negotiable. Crime is totally unknown. Isaris's national animal is the barn owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Isaris is ranked 199,080^th in the world and 124^th in Equilism for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -9.12 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
